"Huh?" As the sound of the wooden fish disappeared, the pile of corpses and the transparent yellow-haired monster also vanished completely in an instant. Wang Yao looked around, feeling utterly bewildered.
The two retreated quickly twice, and were already not far from the alley entrance. The sounds of car horns and voices could be heard in the distance, making Wang Yao feel as if he had been transported to another world.
"What happened to you just now? Why were you hitting the wooden fish for no reason?" Wang Yao asked Hui Shuo.
"No? Huh? Why did I take out the wooden fish?" Hui Shuo stared blankly at the wooden fish in his hand, extremely surprised.
"Did you see anything just now? You...you're deliberately making some kind of mystery here with that wooden fish, aren't you?" Wang Yao asked, frowning.
"No? What did you see? ...Are you playing tricks? I...what tricks did I play?" Hui Shuo looked at Wang Yao in astonishment.
"...Alright, that's enough. This place is eerie, let's get out of here."
Seeing that Hui Shuo's appearance didn't seem fake, Wang Yao was also a little confused, wondering whether what he had just seen was an illusion or that the vengeful ghost from the underworld had really come out.
He wanted to report to the office, but he wasn't sure if what he saw was true or false. If he was mistaken because of his limited knowledge, he would make a fool of himself in front of those old fortune tellers.
When Wang Yao arrived on the street with Hui Shuo, he thought for a moment and then called Qiu Dingxiong. He told Qiu Dingxiong that Hui Shuo had urgent business in Ziqiang County. Instead of canceling the matter of finding the foreigner as he had initially planned, Qiu Dingxiong said that he would come over after finishing his business in Ziqiang County.
It seems this hotel is somewhat eerie, and since his cultivation level is not high, he is not very familiar with the immortal techniques he has mastered. The appearance of the transparent yellow-haired monster earlier caused him a lot of trouble. He needs to figure out the techniques he has mastered. He might have to come back to this alley and try knocking on the wooden fish again.
Qiu Dingxiong answered Wang Yao's call and was clearly disappointed. However, Wang Yao was a choice he made out of necessity, and since Wang Yao had his own business to attend to, he didn't want to force him.
Wang Yao hung up the phone and headed to Zhidu Bus Station. Ziqiang County was a rather remote county in Zhidu, and the journey there would take quite a while. By the time the two arrived in Ziqiang County, it was already dark, the streets were sparsely lit, and there were hardly any pedestrians to be seen.
